## Summary

Pop Mart, the brand behind viral collectibles such as Labubu, has opened its first South Yorkshire shop at Sheffield’s Meadowhall. The arrival gives local fans a place to buy its figurines in person, as the company’s blind-box collectibles have grown popular worldwide.

The shop sells figures including Labubu, Hirono, Dimoo and SKULLPANDA, with blind boxes concealing which character is inside until opened. Meadowhall centre director Darren Pearce said the opening had attracted excitement from fans; it follows several other new retail arrivals at the centre this year.
